A population of 1500 deer decreases by 1.5% per year. At the end of 10 years, there will be approximately 1290 deer in the population. Which function can be used to determine the number of deer, y, in this population at the end of t years?

• y = 1500(1 - 0.015)^t

• y = 1500(0.015)^t

• y = 1500(1 + 0.015)^t

• y = 1500(1.5)^t

There were 417 cell phones sold at an electronics store in January. Since then, cell phone sales at this store have increased at a rate of 3.75% per month. At this rate of growth, which function can be used to determine the monthly cell phone sales x months after January?

• f(x) = 417(3.75)^x

• f(x) = 417(0.0375)^x

• f(x) = 417(1.0375)^x

• f(x) = 417(1.375)^x

Some banks charge a fee for a savings account that is left inactive for an extended period of time. The equation y = 5000(0.98)^x represents the amount remaining, y, of one account that was left inactive for a period of x years. What does the number 5000 represent in this situation?

• fee charged for an inactive account

• percent of money in the account after x years

• amount of money in the account initially

• amount of money in the account after x years
